Operation
based on the properties of the coverslip mountant used, whether the coverslipping is "wet" or "dry,"
and the specimen slide used. If using specimen slides with "clipped corners" (i.e. all four corners are
ground off or rounded), take care that the corners do not overlap the cover slip.
If the coverslip placement is not optimal, air bubbles or glued-on material may result at the suction
cups.
• The length correction LEN shortens the coverslip mountant stroke from the area of the specimen slide
label field towards the center of the specimen slide.
If, even though you have the application quantity at a nearly optimal setting (STK, VOL, TYP), you
identify excess coverslip mountant in the area of the coverslip edge, you can correct this excess by
changing the setting for LEN.
The application quantity of the coverslipping mountant remains constant during this process. Only
the length of the strip of coverslip mountant is shortened. This also makes it possible to correct small
bubbles in the area of the coverslip edge near the label field.
